Apropos of nothing the idea of TBB mod Hieronymous "Hank" Alloy probing people exclusively for breaking MLA standards would be pretty hilarious Anyway, keep up the good work everyone, from the dudes trying to rewrite a bad book to the ones making fun of those people, everyone is doing dynamite work in here

Ehh I don't know that I would call just lifting a bunch of things people are proven to like and mashing them together "potential". It's like the "my kid could paint this" effect we discussed the other day. Except the reason nobodies done anything like this before is because it's even more audacious than a normal ripoff. Someone attempting to rip off Harry Potter for example might try to replicate the themes, tone, or approximate the content. They wouldn't just go "oh Harry Potter is literally in my book but now he rides Falcor and Gandalf is his uncle" or whatever.

It's seriously baffling how much time has been spent arguing about the importance of prose in a thread about "fixing" a bad novel. Even if we agree that prose is third or fourth on most "readers" lists, doesn't the premise of the thread mean that we still want to tackle it as one of the flaws regardless? If we're just going by average reader preference then this entire thread is moot because the average reader already liked RPO. If we agree there are things to improve, certainly we make a good faith attempt to improve along all fronts rather than just making this "RPO Remixed" with better representation and less Mary Sue ex machina, right?

Hmmm blaming the haters is a convenient out for the OP to never bother to post another update again But what if maybe...just maybe, Chito pulls it off, and shows all those haters what he can do! Isn't that a better resolution to the thread?

So write it for all the people who keep coming in to encourage you and yell at the "trolls" (and then seem to disappear when there are no trolls to yell at)

Kruxy posted:"C'mon you loving piece of poo poo fucker!" Wade shrieked. The excitebike groaned in protest. Wade torqued the little throttle to its limit and the little muffler squirted little pixels of exhaust. Even with the Pit Bull engines assisting, the tiny cycle was pushing the limits of its bytes. The concussive quakes on Wade's tail rumbled closer. lmao nice EDIT: ughhhh terrible page topper, sorry
